ICESCO – Islamic World Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization in collaboration with the Baku State University organises “1st ICESCO WORKSHOP ON FUNDAMENTALS OF INSTRUMENTATION & REVERSE ENGINEERING” on 4 - 7 October, 2021, in Baku, Azerbaijan.

The purpose of the Workshop is to introduce to basic ideas employed in the instrumentation, use of various kinds of sensors, acquiring data and its processing. Most of modern laboratory instruments are either electro-mechanical or purely electronic or electro-optical. These employ various kinds of sensors (e.g., temperature, pressure, optical, electrochemical or chemical), than transducers, which convert the sensed signals into electrical. The microcontrollers the processing the signals (in digitized format) and either display the result or control the instruments through actuators. The data is in the form of either analog or digital signals. A microcontroller or a microprocessor process the data and control the systems. In the first Workshop, we plan to introduce basic components instrumentation and participants will be trained to acquire signals from sensors and learn to control through microcontrollers.

The Workshop comprise of combination of lectures and hands on training. It is designed in such a way that it will have lectures in one part and training in the second part. The participants introduced with the basics of instrumentation, its components and requirement for a specific systems.

WORKSHOP TOPICS & SUBJECTS

As it was mentioned above, the Workshop will comprise of combination of lectures and hands on training. It is designed in such a way that it will have lectures in one part and training in the second part. The participants will be introduced with the basics of instrumentation, its components and requirement for a specific systems. It will be followed by basics of input/output signals, analog to digital (ADC) and digital to analog (DAC) controllers, microcontrollers, sensors and actuators. In the end some very simple instruments like temperature controllers, hot plate, electrical measurement systems, etc. will be developed for the participants by the participants. The Workshop will conclude with an emphasize on calibration and industrial standardization of laboratory instruments. Following topics will be covered in the Workshop in a systematic manner so participants will learn the basic tools to develop laboratory instruments:

  1. Key components of modern instruments in a laboratory or workplace
  2. System requirements and key components
  3. Mechanical and vacuum systems
  4. Sensors and actuators
  5. Microcontrollers and FPGAs basics
  6. Interfacing and data acquisition
  7. Development of simple instruments
  8. Industrial standards in instrumentation
